The Suspicious Death of Kendrick Johnson Nov 02, 2020

Show notes

#44 - On January 11th, 2013, students at Lowndes High School made a horrifying discovery inside the school’s old gym: the body of 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson, positioned headfirst inside an upright athletic mat.

Investigators concluded that Kendrick became trapped while attempting to retrieve a pair of shoes and died from positional asphyxia. But his family questioned whether that explanation was physically possible.

An independent autopsy later found evidence of blunt-force trauma, while problems involving the surveillance footage, delayed coroner notification and Kendrick’s missing internal organs fueled allegations that his death had been covered up.

Was Kendrick’s death a tragic accident? Or does the forensic evidence suggest that something else happened inside the gym?

The D.C. Snipers Oct 26, 2020

Show notes

#043 - For three weeks in October 2002, the areas of Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia were terrorized by a series of coordinated shootings. Innocent people were being gunned down at gas stations, bus stops, and while just walking down the street.

At the end of the rampage, 17 people would be murdered and 10 people would be seriously injured.

The killers became known in the media as the D.C. Snipers, and their attacks would forever be remembered as the Beltway Sniper Attacks.

Chandra Levy Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

#042 - A 24-year old Washington D.C. intern and graduate student, who has hopes and dreams of working for the FBI, suddenly vanishes. Disappears from her apartment, leaving behind her ID, purse, cell phone, and dirty dishes in the sink.

The investigation into her disappearance would uncover a romantic affair involving a well-respected U.S. Congressman. A Congressman, who was married and almost 3 decades her senior.

It would take investigators over a year before they had any solid answers in the case. What happened to that 24-year old intern? And was a U.S. Congressman somehow to blame for her disappearance?

Show notes

#041 - On April 1st, 2014, Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers from the Netherlands went missing while hiking a trail in Panama. Their remains were discovered months later after an international manhunt didn’t turn up any leads.

Without a proper cause of death, was this a tragic hiking accident, or did the girls become victims of foul play?

Murder of Sarah Yarborough Oct 05, 2020

Show notes

#040 - A 16-year old high school student from Washington is savagely raped and brutally murdered just yards away from her classmates.

With dozens of potential eyewitnesses, and 2 boys who saw the suspect, it seemed like it was an open and shut case.

But it would take investigators almost 3 decades before they had a potential suspect in the murder. Was a killer about to get away with the perfect murder, or could the advancements in genetic genealogy crack a cold case?
